Description:It started out in the late 1970s as a simple "Matrix Laboratory". We want to build on this laboratory tradition by describing a series of experiments involving applied mathematics, technical computing, and Matlab programming. We will introduce Matlab by way of examples. Many of the experiments involve understanding and modifying Matlab scripts and functions that we have already written. You should have access to Matlab and to our exm toolbox, the collection of programs and data that are described in Experiments with MATLAB. We hope you will not only use these programs, but will read them, understand them, modify them, and improve them.
